Equity release guides

The equity release market is tightly regulated in the UK. Multiple layers of protection are in place to make sure you’re treated fairly, receive clear advice, and understand all your options.

Unlocking money from your home with equity release can provide a welcome financial boost in later life. But one consideration is how it may affect any state benefits you receive, especially those that are means-tested.

For anyone looking to boost their finances later in life, their home can be a welcome safety net as it opens up the possibility of releasing cash through equity release. That’s one way to raise a lump sum or income, but it’s always worth considering the alternatives.
